2 taking a scalpel to the SEMINAR EVIDENCE was a word primarily used in law cases, broadly construed as anything presented in support of an assertion, whether it be strong or weak. Today it s used as a description for just about any field education, marketing, and medicine. Evidence Based Medicine (EBM) shapes and influences clinical practice in order to ensure high quality patient care. And we re here to help, by hosting a seminar that focuses on the application of evidence to foot and ankle surgery. This advanced seminar takes a bottoms-up approach to EBM. Lectures, case-based presentations, and debate from experienced clinical and research faculty will illustrate the decision dilemmas in common and complex surgery of the foot and ankle. Expect thoughtful discussion by faculty from across the country who will face the challenging questions of how to incorporate the triad of clinical expertise, available evidence, and patient perspective into your practice.

3 learning objectives Recognize the limitations of EBM in the surgical arena and balance the evidence with the value of expert experience. Identify the surgical uncertainties in common forefoot surgeries and analyze the functional results and complications associated with these procedures. Conceptualize the surgical decisionmaking process for trauma of the foot and ankle and evaluate results of the newer minimally invasive techniques. Understand how EBM influences clinical practice guidelines. Scrutinize current medical management of surgical patients and establish best practices for perioperative care of the patient undergoing foot and ankle surgery. seminar co-chairs Paul D.
